I am loving Survivors! I loved it in the 70's and have that series on DVD and I am equally loving this new series. It is one of those series that really make you think "what if that really happened?... how would I cope?"
I've always been a bit of a sucker for post apocalyptic things. Stephen King's The Stand, for me is his greatest novel and I have read it more times than I can remember, as well as also having the DVD of the serial (probably one of the few adaptations of a King novel that is relatively true to the book).
There is such a threat of menance running through this new series, I found last night's episode with the community of teenage boys very like Lord of the Flies and very menacing. Also the "eco" community run by the ex-government minister is really spooky with their rules and levels of "acceptability". The whole thing is just really great TV.
I have also really enjoyed Spooks this series, especially as you have never quite known who is "expendable" in the cast, so some twists really have been unexpected. Although I do wish they hadn't killed off Adam Carter (the gorgeous Rupert Penry Jones!!). Maybe I shouldn't admit to it but I may be developing one of those "wrong in so many ways" crushes on Harry Pierce!!
